CityLink - Tullamarine Widening (CTW) Project

Overview:

• The CityLink - Tullamarine Widening (CTW) Project involves upgrading the CityLink-Tullamarine corridor from the West Gate Freeway to Melbourne Airport by the construction of additional lanes, a new bridge over CityLink and the Craigieburn train line, and the implementation of a new managed motorway system to reduce congestion, improve safety and increase the road's capacity by up to 30%.
• The project is being delivered in two sections - the Melbourne Airport to Bulla Road section, which is being delivered by VicRoads, and the Bulla Road to Power Street section, which is being delivered by Transurban.
• Construction on the project began in October 2015 and is expected to be completed by the end of 2017.
